how to implement retrofit library with GSON and RxJava in android


Retrofit can be used with GSON and RxJava to simplify network requests in an Android project. Here is how you can implement Retrofit with GSON and RxJava:


Add the Retrofit, GSON, and RxJava dependencies to your app-level build.gradle file:

python

Copy code

implementation 'com.squareup.retrofit2:retrofit:2.9.0'

implementation 'com.squareup.retrofit2:converter-gson:2.9.0'

implementation 'io.reactivex.rxjava2:rxjava:2.2.19'

implementation 'com.squareup.retrofit2:adapter-rxjava2:2.9.0'

Create an interface to define the endpoints you want to access using Retrofit:

kotlin

Copy code

public interface APIInterface {

  @GET("users")

  Observable<List<User>> getUsers();

}

Create a Retrofit instance and configure it with a base URL and GSON converter:

scss

Copy code

Retrofit retrofit = new Retrofit.Builder()

  .baseUrl("https://api.example.com/")

  .addConverterFactory(GsonConverterFactory.create())

  .addCallAdapterFactory(RxJava2CallAdapterFactory.create())

  .build();

Create an implementation of the APIInterface using the Retrofit instance:


Copy code

APIInterface api = retrofit.create(APIInterface.class);

Make a network request using the API and subscribe to the observable:

less

Copy code

api.getUsers()

  .subscribeOn(Schedulers.io())

  .observeOn(AndroidSchedulers.mainThread())

  .subscribe(new Observer<List<User>>() {

    @Override

    public void onSubscribe(Disposable d) {

      // Handle subscription

    }


    @Override

    public void onNext(List<User> users) {

      // Handle response

    }


    @Override

    public void onError(Throwable e) {

      // Handle error

    }


    @Override

    public void onComplete() {

      // Handle completion

    }

  });

This is just a basic example, you can learn more about Retrofit and RxJava from their respective official documentation:
